Ending and Beginning

This is the last started and finished painting in my hometown, before leaving it for good. It marks the ending of a chapter and the beginning of another.

I finished the piece in the night before leaving for a very long one way drive (more than 4000 km), 3 hours before take off.

It is my way of saying goodbye to the old self and embracing the new with all the splendour of the unknown experiences that have to come.The influences and inspiration gathered from all that composed my lifestyle for the past years were thrown and left on this last painting made in my hometown.

I take it as a totem for embracing big changes and I am sure it will inspire you to be one with the ever-constant change.

Colours Within

Since we had painting supplies in the house just sitting around I said 'let's give it a try'. At first I did not like it because I had too many expectations and I was limiting myself within the common understanding of painting (that you need to study art, that the sky should be painted blue and the circle round).

After a while I went at it again but now I let everything flow from within, diving deep into the uncharted land of the inner kingdom from where colours burst to the surface.

So, I express myself and get to know myself with the curiosity of a child, through these intuitive paintings.
